Vantaggi

Benefits are great: good healthcare plan, they can fly you to the New Zealand office to attend parties, free drinks and snacks in-office, and free lunch for NZ staff on Fridays. Can play table tennis in-office. Gym discount offered to NZ staff.

Svantaggi

Takes you a while to see their true colours. If they like you, your career is prioritised (more development options presented earlier on in your tenure), and you get moved up and have your work exposed to the rest of the company more. If they don't, you get very stale career progression options. There is a clique that acts like a special group that is not friendly or inclusive. The diversity is very much lacking, lots of euro-centric ethnicities but not much of anything else. Not much support or perks for team members employed outside of New Zealand. People get a talking-to when they rate their weekly experience in the company lower than usual which is counter-productive to getting feedback. This makes it so that nobody wants to speak up.

Vantaggi

The company perpetuates a flexible work culture and is a hybrid working environment, allowing remote work 3 days per week (unless negotiated otherwise). There is a shared lunch on Fridays, the company used to go on fun activities together but I'm not sure if they still do. Most of the leadership team are quite down-to-earth people you could grab a beer with. MacBooks! Easy to work with tech stack. The development process is pretty streamlined and it's easy to push code to production.

Svantaggi

The CEO has narcissistic tendencies. He speaks to people below him as if they are worth less. LOTS of legacy code. The workplace has quietly separated into cliques and with the recent possibility of being acquired by an investment group the clique-ness became worse, particularly with a more stark separation between LT and everyone else - though I'm not sure if this would continue. Lots of recent layoffs in the software & product departments. Mostly white people. The office leaks in rainy weather. MacBooks (if you don't like them). The product team are severely overwhelmed and often don't have much time to test the features. This is the blocker for a more efficient CI/CD process.
